Thanks again.No wonder I could'nt find them if they were down as Moyan!Yorweth always spelt his name like that.As for Mabel I think I might contact Merthyr Registry office and see if she was registered to the same parents.

I have searched and searched for them but with no luck. David Morgan was born in merthyr on30/07/1874 .Elizabeth was also born in Mertthyr on2/06/1874.They married on 25/12/1900.I have found them on the 1901 Census.We know they had a daughter Mary Elizabeth born 11/11/1902.We also know that they had at least two children who died young but we don't know when.Their surviving children were born after the 1911 Census.At that time they were in Pond Street Penydarren.
We know Mary spent some time in a hospital in alton in Hampshire which was then called the Lord Mayor Treloars Hospital for Crippled Children.We don't have the exact dates.David was a coal miner.

I would be very grateful for any help to solve this puzzle. :-S
